TIE NEW United States Treasurer refuses
TO remove Mr.. Burnett. chief of the national
bank division of the Treasury Department,
although the latter was SO active partisan
that he was secretary of the republican COM
mittee of Indiana. but he appoints boy
to one of the most lucrative offices in that
department, for no otherapparent reason than
the fact that that boy is member of his
own family. All of which is, of course, high.

SATURDAY EVENING, JULY o.

Tur TREATMENT Mr.. Cleveland has re-
ceiyed from the G. A. r., for MS recent
manifestation of sentimental kindness Tor
the South, has gone long way toward OIL
setting the democratic disappointment ana
dissatisfaction produced in this section by
the civil service and mugwump policy oil
his administration. 1t has tended IN no
small degree to make the South, in which
signs of political disintegration had become
MAINLY discernable not only solid again Tor
the democrats, but solid IN its support OF
President Cleveland for denomination. IL
Mr.. Blaine or Mr.. Sherman, or any olher
one of the Northern republican asplrants
for the nextlPresidency, had been treated
nv the Confederate veterans as Mr.. CleVe-
land has been by The G. A. H., that treat
ment. and not unnaturally, would have
tended strongly to make the North unit
in his favor Like causes produce like effects,
in the South as in the North. But-and
this is question that not only bothers pol
iticians, but is disturbing to all real lovers
of their country-will not the fact that Mr..
CIeveiands expressions of kindness for the
South have tended to make this section solid
in his support, make the more populons
North equally as solid in its opposition 10
him? The fact that so long headed man
as Mr.. Sherman thinks the bloody shirt the
most popular flag he can march under,
seems to indicate an affirmative answer.

A new use of the photograph process is
the preservation of manuscripts. It is an
idea of the publishers of The Century dIc-
tionary, the work ON which involves SO
much handling of the sheets of paper con-
tanning the matter to be printed that they
would soon be unreadable. Each Of the
$4,000 sheets of copy has been copied
on a negative, reduced one fortieth in
size. The negatives are kept in a fire
proof building. When duplicate of a
sheet of copy is wanted, one is produced
from negative of any required size. A
great saving in cost of insurance has been
effected by the adoption of this plan, the
value of the mass OF copy to the publish
ers being not less than $3.50. 900, and the
cost of the negatives being not more than
$500. And no money received from an
insurance company in case of destruction
of such property by fire could repair the
loss of time consumed by the host of
students who had contributed the orig
inal manuscript. The idea was borrowed
from the custom followed in Paris during
its siege by the Prussian army, when re-
duced copies Of letters were sent by car
rier pigeons. Boston Transcrint

Disadvantage Of FIesn.

II is generally supposed that fat people
have much more blood than others. On
the contrary, they have less. The blood
they have, moreover, is really poor, while
the fat fills the space which is required
even for the circulation OF that. The fat
have then less vital energy than the thin,
not possessing sufficient blood to bring
every organ up to its full working power,
and the fat hindering what blood there is
from flowing freely enoueh to the organ,
especially at the momci action requir-
ing it. Beside all this, t,e fat obstructs
the play of the lungs, SO that sufficient
air.cannot be inhaled to purify the blood.
The natural and necessary combustion is
thus so interfered with that the functions
of the body are hindered. It follows that
too much exertion should always be
guarded against in people of large and
fatty development, and too much should
never be expected of them -Harper's
Bazaar.

AN NOgpENOEN FAMILY
ANNAPoLIs. Md, WEDNESDAY, EvENING, JANUARY 2e, l


An Oswego On. " mechanic, who has
just returned from Panama. where he
was at work for the canal company. says
that employees are being buried daily by
hundreds. Three trains are run out of
Aspinwall each day bearing bodies of
dead employees, which are taken to q
place called Monkey Hill These
three trains bear three classes of corpses.
The first is known as ssdumps'
who have neither friends nor money.
The second train contains those who die
at work. The third contains those whose
friends can pay for decent burial. At
the burying ground long trench is dug
and the bodies are dumped in and COW
cred over with two or three feet of earth.
The great objection to the food is the
manner of cooking. Everything is
cooked with onions. They are found in
the soup and hash, and the beefsteak is
smothered in them. Even the tea and
coffee taste and smell of onions. The
employees of the American Dredging
company always receive pay in silver
issued by the Chilian government, and
each dollar is worth about sixty-five
cents. Two Oswego men have arrived
home to-day thoroughly disguised with
Panama. Several others are at Aspin-
wall suffering with fever.-New York

Strong measures are being taken in
Persia to prevent the importation of ami
line dyes for use in textile manufactures,
such as carpets and brocades. 1t Is main
tanned that these dyes are not only less
artistic and stable, but also that they are
positively injurious to health as compared
with indigenous dyes. A similar move
ment is being felt in India, where large
quantities of aniline colors are used; and
it is expected that, unless action be
speedily taken, Indian fabrics will lose
much of their reputation. Boston Tram
